Hello from France
I am just starting to restaure a Commando 850 Mk3 1975 to make a cafe racer and was wondering about the fork. My tubes need to be changed and I would like to improve the front brake. When I see the Norvil prices for that it will be at least 500£ for single disk and 1000 £ for double disks so I was wondering if anyone had put a more modern fork on their commando. I mean a second hand fork from a modern bike will come a lot cheaper and should handle well (once the adaption is done !) Just need to find the right one with a wheel with spoke as well.
Hope the purist don't take that too badly !!!
